Calculation method

Calculation method

Static jack reaction mass-equivalent (kg)

Simple lever reaction=loadMass×loadLever/jackLever.

Entered jack rating margin (kg)

Simple lever reaction=loadMass×loadLever/jackLever.

Symbols and units

Assumptions & limits

Assumptions & limits

  • Static one-plane lever arithmetic only; not permission to lift or work under a vehicle. No contact stability, support stands or dynamic loads. Supported limits: All required fields must be finite values of the exact declared type and within displayed bounds. Lists contain1–1000 finite numbers. JSON tables are numeric rectangular rows, at most100 rows and30 columns; individual tools have stricter shape/domain constraints.
